Conditional Use Permit (Development Code Section 17.04.010E)
A. The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan for Temecula
and with all applicable requirements of State law and other Ordinances of the City;
The proposed wine bar is a conditionally permitted use in the Community
Commercial zone. The proposed use is consistent with the City of Temecula
General Plan which specifies that the Community Commercial (CC) designation
includes retail, professional office, and service oriented business activities
serving the entire community. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as
conditioned, is physically suitable for the use type proposed. The use, as
conditioned, is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law
and local Ordinances, including the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC), California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and fire and building codes.
B. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and
development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional
use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures;
The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and
development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures. The wine bar is
proposed in an existing building in a commercial center within the Community
Commercial zone. The proposed conditional use will provide additional
convenience for the community, and allow the business to be competitive with
other establishments. The conditional use has also been reviewed by the City of
Temecula Fire, Building and Safety, Public Works and Police Department to
ensure sale of alcohol will operate safely and not affect any adjacent uses,
buildings or structures.
C. The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to
accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas,
landscaping, and other development features prescribed in the Development Code and
required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with
other uses in the neighborhood;
The site for the conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate
the yards, walls, fences, loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping and other
development features described in the City of Temecula Development Code as
well as other governing regulations.
D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health,
safety and general welfare of the community;
The proposed project is consistent with the requirements outlined in Chapter
17.04.010 and 17.10.20B of the City of Temecula's Development Code. The
requirements for the proposed conditional use are intended to protect the health
and safety of those in and around the site. The City of Temecula Planning, Fire,
Building and Safety, Public Works and Police Departments have reviewed this
Conditional Use Permit and determined that it will not be detrimental to the
health, safety and welfare of the community as conditioned. In addition, the
Riverside County Department of Environmental Health has also reviewed and
conditioned the project.
E. That the decision to conditionally approve the application for a Conditional
Use Permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before
the Planning Commission;
The decision to conditionally approve the application has been based on
substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole.
Findings of Public Convenience or Necessity (Development Code Section
17.10.020.6.5)
F. Is the proposed use consistent with the General Plan and the
Development Code;
The proposed wine bar is a conditionally permitted use in the Community
Commercial zone. The proposed use is consistent with the City of Temecula
General Plan which specifies that the Community Commercial (CC) designation
includes retail, professional office, and service oriented business activities
serving the entire community. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as
conditioned, is physically suitable for the use type proposed. The use, as
conditioned, is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law
and local Ordinances, including the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC), California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and fire and building codes.
G. Is the proposed use compatible with the nature, condition and character of
the adjacent land uses;
The wine bar is proposed in an existing building in a commercial center within the
Community Commercial zone. This center includes other retail businesses; the
on-site consumption of wine and off-site retail sales at this location is compatible
with the nature, condition and character of adjacent land uses.
H. Will the proposed use have an adverse affect on adjacent land uses;
It is not anticipated that the proposed use will have an adverse affect on adjacent
land uses, as all of the adjacent land uses are primarily commercial retail type
uses, and the proposed project is anticipated to add to the convenience and
diversity of uses located within the center.
1. Would the proposed use result in an excessive number of similar
establishments in close proximity;
With regard to the over concentration of existing licenses in the census tract,
three licenses are allowed before Census Tract 0432.15 is considered to be
over-concentrated by ABC's standards. Fifty-seven active on-sale licenses and
13 active off-sale licenses are currently dispersed throughout the tract located off
of Jefferson Avenue. The new licenses in the census tract would not result in an
excessive number of similar establishments in close proximity.
J. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes the
following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of
the Conditional Use Permit Application:
A. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed
project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review
(Section 15301, Class 1 Existing Facilities);
1. The request for a Minor Conditional Use Permit and Finding of Public
Convenience or Necessity for a Type-20 (Off-sale Beer and Wine) and a
Type-42 (On-sale Beer and Wine) at the proposed Wine on a Dime will be
conducted within an existing building in a developed retail commercial
center. All access and public utilities are available to the site. The
proposed use with issuance of a CUP is in conformance with all zoning
requirements of the Development Code.
Section 3. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula
approves Planning Application Nos. PA09-0185 and PA09-0184, a Conditional Use
Permit and an associated Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity to permit Wine on
a Dime off-site retail wine sales and wine tasting, located at 28061 Jefferson Avenue,
subject to the Conditions of Approval set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto, and
incorporated herein by this reference.
